Publisher's Synopsis
This text features a hands-on, problem-orientated approach that helps students master correct programming skills. Introductory and advanced topics are covered, providing complete material for a one year course. Any student familiar with the notation used at school level in a basic algebra course should easily be able to master all of the material in this book. Highlights include full implementation of Turbo Pascal, abundant, up-to-date pedagogical features and a "Software Toolbox",;a pre-written software unit and appendix which teaches students without prior programming experience how to add special features and construct professional quality programs. Structured programming concepts are covered in detail and separate chapters on IBM compatible computers, recursion, sorting and searching algorithms, and object-oriented programming are included.
